Peanut's Story...

Peanut's Story...

Peanut is an adorable hound mix puppy, about 6 months old. She weighs about 24 lbs and we expect she will have an adult weight of 36 - 40 lbs. Peanut was found alone by the side of the road in Virginia - a tiny pup only a few months old. She has grown into a healthy, happy pup at her foster home, and has a delightful, goofy personality. She's engaging and affectionate with people. Like most puppies she loves to play, play, play. Peanut gets along with the other dogs of varying ages and sizes at her foster home. A home with another dog and a fenced yard would be ideal. We will not consider a home for her where she's alone and no one is home all day. Peanut has arrived and is ready for visits.

About Our Rescue Group...

Coonhounds make wonderful pets. They are very sociable and affectionate and get along well with families and with other dogs. Outside of New England, coonhounds are mostly used for hunting and are often discarded and undervalued if they turn out to be poor trackers or are not needed anymore. Our mission is to educate people about the suitability of coonhounds as pets; to provide support to coonhound owners; and to re home as many coonhounds as possible .
